As a group decide who will research and write what article. Your group must use the Vintage newsletter format in publisher.
Each article must be 100-200 words (do not go over), include 5 vocabulary words (underlined); include your name and the source at the end of your article or use one of the spaces in the format to list all sources. Each newspaper must have 3 graphics and a quote. Each article needs to be read to the group making any necessary grammar/spelling changes.
